    all this drama is one benefit the UFC has over boxing...

    boxing can make more money ...
    but with the "free market" style ...
    there are more contracts ...
    more promoters ... more lawyers ...
    more drama

    the UFC has Dana White ...
    he keeps it simple but the freedom factor is replaced with
    a type of socialism in which his fighters make as
    much as NFL lineman

      Floyd DOESNT want the fight.....
      he accepts the $10 mill overweight deal, but he doesn't want the fight?

      I can't take you seriously any more.

        Damn, did I need to repeat this.
        What's the difference? 3 weeks before,3 days before, why just not take the test when the opposition asks u to..floyd agreed to the 10mill weight limit fine i guess pac can give a little back.

              Pac's team doesnt want blood to be taken multiple times before the fight and i agree with this cause Pac's style and being the aggressor requires more blood than Floyd's defensive style. This just heavily favors Floyd. I gree with Roach that the test should be done after the fight.

                As long as both of them get tested at the same time, I don't see why Pacquiao won't/can't agree to it.

                  its time for Pac's team to come back with an alternative or modified plan ..

                  drug tests before camp and immediately after ...
                  random piss test during camp

                  and if Floyd agrees ....

                  i would compromise to a 40/60 purse in favor of Floyd ...
                  winner gets a bonus

                  Reason: closure so you could focus on training

                  if im in a real training camp ..
                  i wouldn't want any one screwing with my rhythm ..
                  thats why its called training ...

                  a damn random tests would piss me off especially when i gotta run booka miles...and get in the zone

                    A urine and blood test is the same man. any drugs you take will show to both urine and blood tests. they are not different.

                      Because Pac's style being the aggressor requires more blood than Floyd's boxing style. This is simple really.
